Long Time Comin lyrics

Out where the creek turn shallow and sandy
And the moon comes skimmin away the stars
When the mesquite comes rushin over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms

I m ridin hard carryin a cache of roses
A fresh map that I made
Now I m gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on it s grave
And dance on it s grave

It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin , but now it s here
And now it s here

Well my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
Well when I was a kid he was just somebody
Somebody I d see around
Somebody I d see around

Well now down below and pullin on my shirt
Yeah I got some kids of my own
Well if I had one wish for you in this god forsaken world, kid
It d be that your mistakes will be your own
That your sins will be your own

It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin , but now it s here
And now it s here

(Whoaaa)

Out neath the arms of Cassiopeia*
Where the sword of Orion sweeps
It s me and you, Rosie, cracklin like crossed wires
And you breathin in your sleep
And you breathin in your sleep

Well there s just a spark of a campfire left burnin
Two kids in a sleeping bag beside
Reach neath your shirt, put my hands across your belly and feel
Another one kickin inside
And I ain t gonna fuck it up this time

It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin , but now it s here
It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin , but now it s here

(Whoaaa)
